sleep help: why can’t i sleep? - Help.com

i have the same problem you do lol.. i thought i would find an answer in your post.. but its all the same thing.. im up untill 5 or 6 in the morning just laying there with my eyes closed but my body wont relax.. i feel SO tense and i cant relax.. i feel like something thats bothering me is on my mind… but i came to the conclusion that i might have stress related ensomnia or how ever you spell that word lol.. because when im up at night i THINK really hard.. about everything.. my day.. what could have gone better during my day and i relive it and think it over and over and over again.. and i worry.. about personal things.. and it really stresses me out.. so i think thats why i cant sleep at night.. as you can see its 12 30 and i cant fall asleep because im thinking right now lol and answering questions to pass the time and maybe ill get sleepy soon.. but i cant just not think because thats what i do so i think ill have sleep problems for a while.. but what do you do when your up in the night.. just sitting there or thinking about stuff like me? try to figure it out and stop doing it if its possible..

lol you took the words right out of my mouth hehe i do the same things HAHA i thought i was the only one that did that hehe.. well i havnt come up witha way to stop yet.. but i think for me its the worrrying for the most part… i mean i dont worry about little random things.. i worry sometimes that i might not be enough for my girlfriend.. even though i shouldnt worry because i know she only loves me.. but she likes to dance and shes been asked out a couple times when she has gone dancing.. and its very uneasing to me to know that im not there and someone else is trying to make a move and hit on my girlfriend… she turned them all down without a doubt but sometimes i wonder if im good enough lol i mean i treat her like a queen and i buy her nice things and take her out.. for nor particular reason just because i want her to feel special each and every day.. but i think and worry sometimes maybe she deserevs someone better looking ( even though im a pretty hansome guy :P) or maybe someone who can dance better than me.. but its really empty worry for me.. and thinking continuously.. and i dont know how to stop either.. sorry for the long reply.. but by the looks of things you dont have anything to do for the next 4 or five hours anyway so you might as well read it :P HAHA just kidding but i hope you get better cuz god knows i havnt hehe

yeah i thought about sleeping pills too but you gotta make sure you have a FULL 8 hours to dedicate to sleeping because you WILL be drowsy for the whole 8 lol.. that and sometimes someone wil wake me up if i do happen to get to bed early one night.. every few days of getting two hours really takes a tole on me and sometimes ill just knock out.. but sometimes someone wil wake me up and i dont want to be TOTALLY out of it lol

awesome lol thanks cuz i dont have anything as of right now to help calm me down hehe.. thanks :)
